Authors note: Yes I know this is a short chapter, but it is the most important chapter yet. Also, it is one of my favorite chapters. I have been waiting to publish this chapter for some time now. If fact, I was waiting to publish this since I was writing chapter 8!

Now on with the story...

THE CHRONICLES OF

LEGENDARY EEVEE

Chapter twelve: Yin and Yang? Part One

When I opened my eyes, I realized immediately I was in my mind. Everyone has a kind of landscape that is unique to them. Mine was a rocky canyon with very few trees or vegetation. In my mind, I was alone, not even Gardevoir could come here. Yet something felt wrong. Some foreboding feeling that all was not as it should be.

Then I saw it, a fleeting shadow from some stranger. Confused, I ran in the direction of the intruder. How could there be anyone here but me, it was simply impossible. This was inside of my very consciousness, no one could come here. I ran after the shadow through the red rock of the dark canyon.

No matter how fast I ran, the unseen intruder was already one step ahead of me turning another corner, why couldn't I catch him. I paused to catch my breath, convincing myself I was chasing a mirage, it had to be that, there could be no one here but me.

"It is about time you and I met." rang out an unidentified voice from somewhere behind me. I spun around behind me to face the mysterious voice, my tail flailing…..to find no one. Convinced I must be imagining things, I turned back around, and stared into deep crimson eyes.

There was another Pokemon in front of me. It was an Eevee, but no just any. It was me, down to every detail save color. Where I was brown and cream colored, he was ebony black and dark gray.

The black eevee made no move, just stared at me with no expression on its face, but its eyes betrayed a deep sorrow and anger.

"Who are you?" I managed to say, my words echoing strangely. The stranger said nothing for a moment, considering what to say, then replied,

"Who me, I'm nobody."

For a while, neither of us said anything, waiting for the other person to do something. I suddenly remembered my battle with Tyranitar, how I had acted after the black light had hit me and said,

"You are Darkness"

The stranger laughed, a strange sounding laugh that seemed to convey sorrow rather than joy, a laugh I would not soon forget. Then he looked back at me and replied,

"You call me Darkness, then does that make you Light?"

I was stunned by his riddle. No, I was not light; I had flaws and hatred like everyone else. I had done bad things, and I had done good things in my life. What was he trying to say?

"You ask me who I am, a more appropriate question is who are we?" he said, slowly walking toward me. He gestured to the side with his tail and I saw the illusionary image of a human. Even though I had never seen my human side I knew it was me.

"Who are we?" he repeated, arranging himself in a triangle in front of us. Cold sweat ran down my neck as I realized there were three spirits here…..in me. He stopped and looked me straight in the eyes and said,

"We are the Trinity"
